Falling film evaporator for food processing

Optimize your liquid concentration process with a vacuum-operated system designed for efficient evaporation and reduced steam consumption, ensuring your production line achieves the desired purity and quality in fruit juices, dairy products, and more.

Concentrates Liquids Through Vacuum Evaporation

The Falling Film Evaporator from Uzermak is designed to meet the sophisticated needs of the food and beverage industry. This equipment operates under vacuum conditions, enabling precise liquid concentration by efficiently preheating and evaporating liquids. Utilizing internal coil-tube exchangers, it reduces steam consumption during processing, making it an energy-efficient choice. Applications range from producing grape concentrate and pectin extract to processing apple juice, yogurt, and whey protein concentrate. With AISI304 stainless steel construction, it ensures durability and resistance to corrosion, supporting rigorous operational environments. The continuous operation mode, combined with vacuum efficiency, integrates seamlessly into existing production lines for dairy producers and fruit juice manufacturers. Customizable configurations and engineering support ensure that the evaporator meets your specific process requirements, while CIP compatibility facilitates easy and thorough cleaning.
